letra de old bolshevik's song - joe glazer & bill friedland

Loading...

[verse 1]
when i was a lad in nineteen-six
i joined a band of bolsheviks
i read the manifesto and das kapital
i even learned to sing the internationale
(and he even learned to sing the internationale)

[chorus]
and i sang that song with a ring so true
that now i’m in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo
(and he sang that song with a ring so true
that now he’s in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo)

[verse 2]
when lenin and his boys insurrection made
i found myself on the barricade
on kerensky’s troops i turned my gun
and didn’t stop shooting ’til the reds had won
(and he didn’t stop shooting ’til the reds had won)

[chorus]
and i fired that gun with an aim so true
that now i’m in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo
(and he fired that gun with an aim so true
that now he’s in the prison of the gay-pay-oo)
[verse 3]
when nep was started, and lenin died
i found myself on trotsky’s side
all went well ’til ’28
and then i was forced to capitulate
(and then he was forced to capitulate)

[chorus]
and my capitulation had a ring so true
that now i’m in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo
(and his capitulation had a ring so true
that now he’s in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo)

[verse 4]
from then ’til now, i’ve had no peace
my steps have been dogged by the secret police
i denounced the opposition time and again;
denounced the opposition with tongue and pen
(he denounced the opposition with tongue and pen)

[chorus]
and my denunciation had a ring so true
that now i’m in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo
(and his denunciation had a ring so true
that now he’s in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo)
[verse 5]
now, diversionists all, wherever you may be
if you want to do as well as me:
confess to revolution and espionage
to wrecking railroads and sabotage
(to wrecking railroads and sabotage)

[chorus]
adhere to the line of lenin too
and you’ll end up in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo
(adhere to the line of lenin too
and you’ll end up in the prisons of the gay-pay-oo)
